【Course Objectives】

This is an intermediate-level course in corporate finance at the graduate level. The goal of the course is to gain thorough understandings on theories and practices of corporate financing and payout policies. After taking this course, students should be able to explain how firms should design their financing and payout policies so as to maximize firm value. This is an intensive Fall Quarter 2 course.

【Course Contents】

We begin with corporate financing decisions and learn how firms raise outside capital through issuing financial securities such as equity and debt in financial markets. Then we discuss an optimal mix of equity and debt issuances by considering various trade-offs between the costs and benefits associated with those securities. In the later part of the course, we examine how financing decisions could affect the valuation of investment projects through their effects on a firm's cost of capital. We will also examine corporate payout policies and discuss how firms should design their cash distribution policies to maximize shareholder value. We would also touch on other topics in corporate finance if time allows.
